SWORD DREAMER

SWORD DREAMER

In the cold snow he begins to make his way
His life will change forever on this day
Just a normal everyday person until the Vikings came
They called him to the pier by calling his name
Ivar the Boneless stood there before his eyes
With Erik the Red and others standing at his side
Was he truly worthy of the warrior's call?
He stared in amazement as he looked at them all
A longship floated in the ocean, ready to set sail
Is the Sword Dreamer worthy to begin a new tale?
He dreams of the past and it comes to life
Just like they came to him on this snowy night
The brothers across the sea came to see if he's worthy
Just an average daydreamer from the woods of Jersey
He's handed a sword with his name written in runes
His name will be written in the stars very soon
With the legends of the past now in Valhall
He will get to see them, one and all
He is now Urso Shieldcrusher, he is a Viking reborn
Linked to the ancient brothers in the cold he feels so warm
He makes his way on as he accepts his fate
He doesn't know what else he will face
He gets on the ship and who knows knows what will unfold
As they sail off to have adventures untold.
